DESCRIPTION / SLEEVE NOTES
Jazz musician and critic Leonard Feather once observed: “Americans, unknowingly, live part of every day in the house that Satch built. A riff played by a swinging band on television, a nuance in a Sinatra phrase, the Muzak in the elevator, all owe something to the guidelines that Louis set.” He wrote those words many years ago, but today not a lot has changed. All the tracks included on this LP are brilliant, virtuoso performances from the legendary trumpet star who changed the course of jazz more than any other.
